This pivot compares mourning rituals in Archaic & Classical
Greece and Pre-Qin China to illustrate some of the principles and
methods used in comparative studies. It focuses on three main
aspects of mourning of the dead before burial - lamentation,
mourners' gestures and behaviors, and mourning apparel - to
demonstrate the cultural function, purpose, and social influence of
mourning. A key comparative study of rituals at the heart of both
Western and Chinese culture, this text highlights the cultural
function and social influence of rituals of two ancient peoples and
will be of interest to all scholars of comparative religion,
sociology and anthropology.
